Cobb Posted May 14, 2010 Report Share Posted May 14, 2010 Atlanta Journal Constitution Sund said the Hawks would extend a qualifying offer to Josh Childress, a restricted free agent who has played in Greece the past two seasons. If Childress wants to return to the NBA, he must opt out of his contract with Olympiakos by July 15 (he reportedly hasn't made up his mind). Extending the one-year, $4.8 million qualifying offer would allow the Hawks to maintain Childress' NBA rights. If Childress doesn't accept the offer but wants to return to the NBA, the Hawks could use him in a sign-and-trade transaction.Good to hear because we don't want to lose him for nothing.

Newman Posted May 14, 2010 Report Share Posted May 14, 2010 I don't even remember this guy. I guess he gives them a trade chip to work with should he decide not to return to the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love him to come back to the NBA although, I'm not sure how well he's doing over in Greece. He has until July 15th to opt out of his contract with Olympiakos.
